I saw people were interested in the Leybold counter, and I have this dekatron based counter that I'm willing to sell/trade if someone's interested.  Technically it's just a prescaler, to go with a counter I do not have.  I don't have any of the things that plug into it either.  However, it does appear to operate.

It looks like a normal Geiger-counter as it has a high-voltage selector which is probably connected to the "blue" contact at the back, the black tube socket contact is probably just start/stop and reset inputs and possibly also the rest of the front switches like manual/test and set.

Very cool. What's the maximum voltage? I can't quite see it on the picture. If it's 900V this is definitely for "standard" GM tubes.
